THE HALF-BREED SCARE.
All Quiet at Turtle Mountain
Unnec essary Alarm.

The alleged half-breod outbreak at
Turtle mountain has caused a great deal
of unnecessary excitement throughout
the country. Some alarming reports
were sent out by residents Of the east
end of tho mQdhtain in regard to what
the half-bnseds were going to do if they
ports reAched some irresponsible news
paper correspondents by whom thoy
.wey6 greatly colored. Information also
Ireached Gov. Church which led him to
Place the matter with Adjutant General
Tvner, and the substance of hume rous
official kilograms on the subject got into
the newspapers. and this had the effect
Of intensifying the excitement. Mean
time the breeds had settled down and the
less disturbed than the outsiders, who
gathered their information from scnsa-
tiOnal and unwarranted reports.
Major Benham, who was instru' ted by
Gen. Tyner to 20 to st. john and make
an investigation, returned yesterday, in
company with U. -M2rshal Stanley.
Their roPsft simply confirms the facts
Leoncerning the original trouble over half
dozen ponies siezed by Sheriff Flynn.
Major Cramsie, the Indian agent at
Ft. Totten is on the ground. Ho has an
order from the interior department which
shows that the half-breeds are ainenablc
to civil authority and must pay their
just proportion of taxes. 1t is ascer-
tained that the amount of personal taxes
due Rolette county from half-breeds is
about $1,000. The more conservative Of
the breeds say they will pay these taxes
if the interior department instructs them
to do so: Major Crainsie requests the
county officials to wait until June l, un-
der tho new law, and then collect by de-
straint, but the officials are OF the Opl,-
ion tb2t~tby June the breeds will have
taken their property out of reach. SO
the matter stands. Major Benham and
Marshal ShanIey think some of the breed
leaders should be arrested for their def
ance of law in having taken The ponies
IN charge of the sheriff. This, they think,
would be sufficient to give the breeds to
understand that while they are on United
States soil they should obey the law.
Gen. Tyner and Capt. Yorkey, who
came up from the Red river Wednesday,
returned yesterday, fully satisfied that
military force will be unnecessary. Gen.
Tyner will make an official report to
Gov. Church to this effect, and probably
recommend the organization OF local
company at the mountains as part of
the militia service of the territory.
MUCH ADO ABOUT NOTHING.
The following from the Turtle Noun
tain Times of last Saturday explains the
situation as it really exists:
There is great deal Of talk about the
half breed trouble in this county, and all
sorts of><dnors are in circulation, many
Of which are so exaggerated as to provoke
and contempt for their retail
crs. The whole trouble is this: The
breeds living in this county-not on the
reservation--have been assessed by our
county officers since the organization OF Of
to pay taxes, though some of them have
paid. The result Of their refusal has
been an order to the sheriff to proceed to
sell their property for taxes and costs.

4 NEEDED INSTITUTION.
A Building Selected for the Boys Orphan

A Building Selected for the Boys Orphan
Asylum.
Yesterday there was left for record at
Clerk Hooks office deed in which Mary
]. Carney transferred to the Wheeling
Hospital and Orphan Asylum, in con-
sideration of $1,000, the two story brick
building located at the eastern end OF
Thirteenth street, on the south side Of the
street,
This building is intended to be trans
formed into an orphan asylum for boys,
and will be under the management of the
Sisters of st. Joseph, who have so long and
successfully controlled the girls asylum at
the Hospital building The house contains
nine rooms, and can be readily adapted to
the uses in view. Ri Rev. Bishop Kahn
said yesterday:
81 think the location is an admirable
one. 1t is close to the school and Cathe-
dral, while at the same time it has many
of the advantages of the country, being
situated in very retired and quiet quar-
ter. Heretofore there has been no pro-
vision for the boys, and it was with view
to affording them home that the pur-
chase was made. 1t is hardly possible
that the asylum will be put in operation
before summer, as the changes in the loca-
tons of some of the Sisters, made necessary
by this institution, will require some con-
sideration. In the meantime the property
will be put in the care of sneaultiimant. y

ROME, March 31.--Following is the text
of the letter OF Cardinal Manning, referring
to the knights of Labor, to a prominent
divine OF this city:
"ARCHBIsHoP's HOUSE, WESTMINSTER,
LONDON, March 4.
"MY DEAR LoRD:-I have read with
great assent Cardinal Gibbons document
in relation to the Knights of Labor. The
Holy See will, am sure, be convinced by
his position of the state of the new world.
/ hope it will open new field of thought
and action. 1t passes the understanding
that Officious persons should be listened to
rather than church officials. Surely the
Episcopate of the whole world is the most
powerful and direct instrument in the
hands of the Holy See for gathering correct
local knowledge, and enforcing its decis-
ions. Who can know better the temper of
America, England or Ireland than those
that live there? Henceferth the Holy See
will have to deal with the people, and per-
sonally act with them.
'Never at any time has the Episcopate
been so detached from civic powers aud
united in itself, and so well able to see, to
realize and to use Its powers. Failure TO
see and use these powers will breed much
trouble and mischief If l can find a copy
of my lecture on The Dignity and Rights
of Labor / will send it to you.
"We are at this day, as Church, the
mother, friend and protector Of the people.
As the Lord walked among them, so his
Church lives among them. The Cardinals
argument is irresistible.
"Your servant in Christ,
HENRY EDWARD,
Cardinal Archbishop of Westminster.

A Bogus Detective Has Some of His Exploit

A Bogus Detective Has Some of His Exploit,
Aired.
The testimony in Police Court yester'
day morning, in the case of Charles Hervey,
charged with disorderly conduct in striking
and knocking down Bennett Cook, the
bogus detective, developed the fact that
Cook richly deserved all the punishment
he got. The evidence showed that Cook
had written to Mrs. Hervey, claiming to be
detective, and asking for an
interview to enable him to secure
information about two girls who
only existed in his mind. Mrs. Henry, on
the advice of her husband, had an inter-
view with Cook, several friends of the lady
being present, upon which occasion Cook
gave himself dead away" Wednesday
evening Mrs. Hervey, her son, and sister
in-law attended the Grand Opera House,
when Cook obtained a seat BESIDE them,
made nuisance of himself during the
performance, and insisted on escOrting
the ladies home. On Chapline street,
on the South Side, Mr.. Her
vey met the party, and recognizing
Cook as bad egg, knocked him down, and
pointed revolver at him, with the iufor-
nation that if he didn't promptly get out
of town he would kill him.
Upon hearing the evidence His Honor
took the case under adyisement. Cook
has worked the detective racket about
town at lively rate, his prey being princi-
pally the inmates of houses OF i'll fame.
Several complaints of this kind have been
made to Officer Watson, coming from wo-
men in the Second ward. The United
States authorities have bad occasion to
watch him, and Chief Smith testified yes
terday to warning given him by Deputy
Marshal Meighen.

That portion of tbs Seventh ward lyiDs
south of Virginia street and east Of South
Penn street will experience building
boom this spring which, from present in
dications, will far eclipse that beautiful
little squirt made in the same locality last
fall. For some time past desirable build
ing lots in that locality have been chang
ing hands, and now things have gotten
into such shape that owners are prepared
to 90 into extensive improvements.
Alittle syndicate having for its object tht
erection of quite number Of dwellings
has been quietly formed, and it was an
nounced yesterday that arrangements had
been about perfected for the erection Of
eight or ten houses along the newly opened
Vermont street, extending from South
Front westward to South Penn street. II
is understood two of these houses will b
erected by Mr.. Zane, two by Messrs
Frame and Holt, two by Lewis Jones, one
or two by L. M. Etzler, and Others by
gentlemen owning ground along the
throughfare, and when the contemplated
Improvements are completed the new
street will be we'll lined by new and. con-
yenient cottages. The Water Board has
determined to lay water main on Yer
mont street, as soon as the weather settles
down, and it is probable the West Virgins
Natural Gas Company and the Board OF
Gas Trustees win follow with their pipe
lines early in the spring.
In the same locality several other hand
some dwelling are about ready for con
tract, one by Mr.. F. c. II. Schwertfeger, and
another by Councilman McGregor. Mr.
A. M. Stevenson has just completed two
new houses at Ohio and South Front
streets, Col. Robert Campbell has hand
some double house in course of erection on
the south side of Virginia street, and Mr..
L. E. Sands is completing handsome
residence at the corner of South Front and
Florida streets Several other dwellings
are also in prospect in this locality.
This sort of boom is fully as import
ant as any other which can strike the
city, and shows that things in Wheeling
are not dead, by any means. Let the good
work continue.

the rooms in the basement of the German
